Linking domains on same ip

I don't know if i can post a link in the question so if you google 800 appliance and do a little reaserch on them you will see that it has many links with same content linking to the main domain and to each other.

They hosted on the same ip which from what i read doesn't supposed to help in ranking.

According to http://ispionage.com they only rank for 23 search terms and most of them include the words 'san diego'. So they're not exactly an SEO machine (unless you're in San Diego and a competing appliance company, perhaps).

Many links from different domains on the same c-class IP address are devalued by Google. Likewise, mininets (a collection of sites that link to each other for the benefit of another site) I suspect are easily discovered and devalued by Google, too. These kinds of games lost their effectiveness several years ago.

To get good (valuable) link is always good. Even if it is from same IP it is better than no link at all. Of course it is my opinion but it is your call to get the link or not. Hopefully it helps ... I'm using link research tool from SEOMoz and it helps a lot.
